Hello.
I was going to wait till next Febuary to start this journal.
I figured what the hey.
Get the preliminary stuff out of the way.
I'll be growing some "Eldorados".
It's supposed to be a landrace from the Oaxacan Region of Mexico.
Got the seeds from Single Seed Centre, 2 packs of 10 seeds. Came with like two freebie seeds (not really interested in them at all - if anyone wants my freebies...).
Soil - that's a tough one. I'll just be using good ole fashioned dirt amended with some really good compost and mulch.
Nutes - Don't have a clue. Whatever's in the soil is in the soil. Plus, I've got a favorite fish based plant food nearby, just in case. Also, that dried Banana Peel tea that I fed my plants this year (for the budding cycle) worked really well, so I'll be using that too.
Lights - Only one grow light I can think of, especially since I'm doing it 'outdoors'...? That's a toughie.
I do plan on making my own potting soil again. I'll be using that along with the little peat pots I got from Wal-Mart for germinating the seeds, again.
Right now I'm just thinking about starting with germinating only 10 seeds. I'll maintain the 10(?) plants for a while, see how things develop, and bring the number of plants down further.
Got a lot of stuff to get done in the back yard between now and Febuary...
Gonna have to run the contents of my compost/mulch pit through the shredder before I till it into the soil.
I've got a big Bougainvillea plant I gotta trim down and then dig out, run through the shredder.
I'm sure to have a big pile of plant trimmings, and what not, to run through the shredder too.
Gotta a bunch of junk that needs to be hauled away. Should be able to schedule in a few "Free Drop-off Days" trips to the dump. Maybe even a few "Curb-side Pick-Ups"...who knows.
All kinda different stuff I gotta get done before Febuary.
Shit.
Hope I can manange.
Was barely able to get what I needed done this year to be able to grow anything. A lot of different things developed this year that kept us from getting a lot of things done.
I'm not complainin' - I'm surprisingly content with how things turned out this year, despite all the set-backs. Next year I would just like things to go a little better, not rushed - more organized would definitely help too.
Won't be growing just Cannabis, Cukes, and Melons next year.
